What HYD to DEL looks like
The HYD to DEL sector, the carriers on it and the flying time, before anything is promised to anybody.
Hyderabad HYD to Delhi DEL is a medium haul sector of 1,268 km by great circle, flown nonstop 31.4 times a day.
At the cruise speed this site models for 1,268 km, 830 km an hour, and thirty minutes of taxi at the two ends, the flight blocks at about 2h 07m.
Hyderabad HYD is a mid sized airport in the network held here, 79 scheduled destinations and 245.2 departures a day. Delhi DEL has 133 destinations and 607.8 departures a day.
Hyderabad and Delhi keep the same clock all year, so the arrival time is the departure time plus the block and nothing else.
The pair sits inside Asia Pacific, a corridor where the site already publishes 16 written lanes that go into customs and ground detail this page does not.
Who flies the sector, and how often
Average daily frequencies on HYD to DEL from the scheduled route statistics, both directions, with the operating carriers named.
| Direction | Flights a day | Flights a week | Operated by |
|---|---|---|---|
| HYD to DEL | 31.44 | 220.1 | Air India, Alliance Air, Blue Bird Airways, IndiGo, Starlight Airline |
| DEL to HYD | 29.35 | 205.5 | Air India, Alliance Air, IndiGo, Starlight Airline, Air India Express |
6 carriers are recorded on the sector, so a missed departure is normally a rebooking rather than a lost day.
At 31.4 times a day there is usually another departure within a few hours, which is what makes a same day booking on this pair realistic.
Between them the two directions put about 425.5 departures a week on HYD to DEL, which is the number that decides whether a seat can be found today or on Thursday.
The clock from collection to signature
The same ground timings the route calculator starts from, applied to the 2h 07m block time on HYD to DEL. Change any of them in the tool further down and the total moves with them.
| Stage | Allowed | Elapsed |
|---|---|---|
| Collection and the run to HYD | 90 min | 1h 30m |
| At HYD before departure | 180 min | 4h 30m |
| HYD to DEL in the air, estimated | 127 min | 6h 37m |
| Formalities at DEL | 90 min | 8h 07m |
| Delivery run in Delhi | 45 min | 8h 52m |
| Door to door | 532 min | 8h 52m |
On the desk standard ground timings, ninety minutes to collect and reach the airport, three hours at the airport before departure, ninety minutes of arrival formalities and a forty five minute delivery run, the door to door figure for HYD to DEL is 8h 52m.
A courier who leaves Hyderabad at 09:00 local is on the ground in Delhi at about 11:07 local and at the door by 13:22 the same day.
Working backwards from a six in the evening handover in Delhi, the last useful departure from Hyderabad is around 13:38 local.
When the nonstop does not work
Every airport that joins the two ends, ranked by when they land, among the ones whose weaker leg is dependable enough to plan on. Connection time is allowed for the size of the hub. 50 of them join HYD to DEL.
| Connecting at | HYD to hub, flights a day | Hub to DEL, flights a day | Track, km | Estimated, gate to gate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Nagpur NAG | 2.29 | 6.87 | 1,288 | 3h 43m |
| Jaipur JAI | 3.43 | 6 | 1,332 | 3h 44m |
| Bhopal BHO | 1.14 | 6.29 | 1,270 | 3h 52m |
| Indore IDR | 2.43 | 10.31 | 1,332 | 3h 58m |
| Lucknow LKO | 2.29 | 14.2 | 1,512 | 4h 00m |
| Udaipur UDR | 0.71 | 5.71 | 1,490 | 4h 01m |
With 31.4 times a day on the nonstop, a connection here is a disruption plan rather than a routing, and it is listed because a closed runway or a cancellation wave is exactly when nobody has time to work it out.
50 airports connect the two ends on the scheduled network held here. The quickest of the dependable ones is Nagpur NAG, where the weaker of the two legs still runs about twice a day.
Through NAG the routing covers 1,288 km against the 1,268 km nonstop track and takes about 3h 43m in the air and on the ground at the hub, allowing 60 minutes to connect at an airport of that size.
That is only 1h 36m more than the nonstop, which is close enough that a connection is worth taking when the nonstop is full or badly timed.
Behind it, Jaipur JAI at 3h 44m and Bhopal BHO at 3h 52m hold the same connection, so a booking has three hubs to try before it has to wait for the nonstop.

Where this came from, and where to look next
- Carriers and frequencies: AeroDataBox scheduled route statistics, retrieved 2026-09-07. Average daily flights, not a timetable.
- Distances: great circle from published coordinates. They read short against a flown track, which is why the block time above applies a factor to them.
- Block and connection times: the same model the route calculator lower down this page runs, at the same rounding.
- Restrictions: the airport notes file, checked 2026-09-07.
- Industrial sites: public company information. Nothing here says or implies that any company named is a customer of any courier operator.
Who publishes this. OnBoard Courier is a placement desk in Dubai. An assignment is carried out by a vetted partner operator, with the desk as the single point of contact from the quote to the signature. This page exists because our own dispatchers need the answer for HYD to DEL in the twenty minutes before a promise is made, and a reference only one operator can read is not a reference. Free to read, quote and cite. Found an error? Tell us and we will correct it.
If you need something moved rather than looked up, the desk prices a hand carry in fifteen minutes.
